This episode featured RAW Women's Champion Becky Lynch and was heavily promoted by WWE on social media.

To compare, the season 4 premiere drew 843,000 viewers on March 17, 2019 and the season 4 finale drew 793,000 viewers on June 9 of last year. The fourth season averaged 772,000 viewers per episode.

Lynch tweeted on the appearance and posted behind-the-scenes photos. The appearance was booked after co-creator and executive producer Brian Koppelman invited Lynch on the show last year when she tweeted about him wearing one of her t-shirts during a panel.

"I can't tell you how much I enjoyed filming @SHO_Billions and working with such an incredible and talented cast and crew. #BeckyBillions," Lynch wrote.
